Not 1. To all the people who say this amp is not a sub amp I say "what the heck ya'll smokin on because it's got you twisted." I have ran this amp to all sorts of subs (from 10's to 15's) I have blown a total of 4 subs with this BEAST! Including a JL-W6 15 and a PBX 15XSDv.2 (yeah that big 60 pound sum of a _ _ _ _ _.) This amp is capable of the 1000wRMS range if ran right! I had this amp pushing 2 15-inch JL W-6's for a majority of its span with me but it has ran Eclipse's,RF's,JL's,PowerBass's,MTX's, Power Acoustics, so its been tested quite a few times! It blew one of my JL's (15w-6) and I sent it in and got it back and still slammed it some more! My whole car has started looseing screws and has rattled all sorts of stuff loose! I LOVE THIS AMP AND RECOMMEND TO ALL WHETHER PUSHING SUBS OR SPEAKERS. I had another one of these amps so I had 2 for a 2 month span but the one I bought used for a 125 bucks had a few problems that had nothing to do with me or what I hooked it up to but a previous owner! The one I bought for 365 from a local car audio shop has never shut off or had 1 problem! (Except blowing SUBS) That is just my personal experience with a "Classic AMP" that I will always speak highly of! PG is tha @*%#! Dont sleep on this model! (Does get HOT but never shuts off) Must get a LPL to fully enjoy though. Similar Products Used: PG ZX450 |

deep and clear bass
Weakness:
none!! My friend sold me his system, on XS2500, 2 XS124DVC sub in a sealed box and a 1 farad pg cap. This is the best sound system i had never have!! It makes really good and deep bass without distortion. Now they're in a sealed box but i project to make a big vented box to try if it sound better. If someone could help me for that, I need some technical note on the 12" sub or the XS sub series i don't find anything on these sub!!! if you got something add a comment to my review. |

Strength:
Runs my one JL 10w6 very clean with a lot of control. I couldn't turn the amp up more than half way because the sub couldn't handle much more. I love the LPL control on it as well!
Weakness:
It did tend to get hot when I was running it to 3 10w6's but go figure with those things trying to drink the power they want out of that little amp? I've used the xs2500 to power 3 JL 10w's in a sealed box and it surprised me that it could run them so efficiently! Now that it is 3 years down the road I got out of the db phase and ran it mono to just 1 JL 10w6 about half way open and that JL just dances flawlessly with that amp. I love it! Similar Products Used: I also used an mtx 4320 and PG is the way to go all the way for solid clean sound. |

Strength:
it can push just about any speaker u match it up with.It can also with stand high tempertures
Weakness:
It has to have so much power to push it.sometimes it fades out but it never cuts off. This amp is awesome, it puts out much more than i thought it would. I have it hooked up to two jl audio w3 and it makes my car sound like the trunk it about to fall off. |
